Ready to orchestrate major incident resolution?

If you’re still relying on spreadsheets, pagers, and manual processes, then you’re leaving valuable time on the table. Improve your policies and platform:
  • Alert Blasts – Page-out to multi-team group structures, use pre-built message templates, and always know who was notified. Alert teams with HTML, dynamic content, graphs, images, Runbook links, or bridge access.
  • Industry-leading Scheduling – Create complex schedules that reflect your unique needs. Automate processes using a powerful no-code workflow engine with automatic escalations and escalation groups.
  • Live Call Routing – Route inbound calls to on-call team members in real-time. Callers never hit a dead end. Resolve complex incidents faster with team structures that mirror real-world teams.

Improve Collaboration Between Your Platforms, People, and Processes Like Never Before.

Resolve Major Incidents at Light-speed with Improved Granularity and Flexibility.

Reduce Mean time to Repair (MTTR) with SmartAlerts™ and an advanced workflow engine that uses a no-code, Open API – giving you granular options and enhanced capabilities to keep up with your university’s digital transformation efforts.

For example, when an incident occurs, automatically open a ticket in Cherwell, create and update a Microsoft Teams channel, update your Status Page, and notify your on-call team based on the type of incident – simultaneously.

You can also manually page your team, department, or the entire organization with preset templates for critical scenarios –AlertOps does all the heavy lifting (who, what, when, how) for you – simplifying ITSM processes.

Having an automated and centralized solution results in a clear connection between productivity and collaboration – meeting the needs of your IT department’s reliability to the higher education institution.

Our customers and partners love us!

Don’t just take our word for it

The absolute flexibility to mold the product to do anything you need. We are using AO to ingest alerts from data sources that are unable to integrate into our ticketing system. AO allows us to add transformations and manipulate the data and then pass it to our ticketing system and alert the correct team(s). The ability to ingest and process data from basically anything is absolutely unbeatable in any of the other solutions we looked at.

"The technicians in the customer support department are extremely knowledgable about the product and very helpful. They were able to tailor exactly to our needs even though we were not using the system the way others do. The app continues to get updates and the GUI is very user-friendly, our team was able to transition over very quickly and successfully!"

Meir G VP, Customer Support

Prior to using AlertOps we were fielding urgent requests through a variety of communication channels. With AlertOps we were able to tailor those communications to each specialist's preferred communication method (text, phone call, email). This cut our issue response time in half and has given leadership confidence that all business critical issues are seen by the right people at the right time.

Peter Buzzell Senior Manager, eCommerce Technology

The AlertOps cost compared to the previous legacy-priced PagerDuty account is significantly less for the same features. The on-boarding process was smooth, with only a few hiccups in the transition of specific PagerDuty customization. The ongoing technical account support is fantastic.
